  1. 100,000 simulations… These were called "Monte Carlos" back in the 80s when I was a physics major.

  2. I have a lot of time for Bernie. She's been in the thick of Formula One operations and knows what she's talking about, unlike some of the others hanging around.

  3. Hats off to Bernie for taking the time to answer viewer questions but thanks also to the fans who sent in interesting questions for Bernie to choose from.

  4. Thanks for being one of the rare engineers (of any kind – not racing alone) who can explain complicated info in uncomplicated ways.

  5. No wonder she has not been given any other opportunities to join a top team. No added value. These women are a reason not to watch the sport anymore.

  6. Always great to hear from Bernie. Eloquent and detailed explanations of everything but in a simple way free of filler. It's been great seeing her become more confident in her role compared to the beginning.

  7. It appears that Sky F1 coverage is no longer available in the USA without requiring a new subscribtion to another service. That won't happen, so I'm done watching F1 after ten years of never missing a session. Thank you for the good times while they lasted.

  8. 100k simulations per race. This is why there is no variety in strategy across the grid. An easy way to make F1 more interesting would be scrapping race simulations or practice sessions. Make teams use human intuition to decide on strategy, and there will be more 'gambles' and more chance of interesting races

  9. I'm in the USA and just watched the first two practice sessions on Apple TV. I cannot say how much I miss you all. Apple's attempts to cover F1 are seriously pathetic. Other than Montoya and Palmer, it looks as though they just rounded up some people who were cheap and named them 'experts'. The two ladies they've got together don't come close to your knowledge and in-depth understanding, Bernie. Between F1 going with Apple, the wholesale remake of all the regs, and Honda's misfires, I wonder if F1 itself isn't trying to kill off the US market.

  10. Bernie, your Irish accent is so strong, especially when you're live on F1, I can't understand you !!!

  11. Such a huge coup to get Bernie on the Sky F1 team. Her background/expertise offers something different from the rest of the analysts (who are all great too now that Danica is gone 😂)

  12. The bigger questions are
    What the F is she saying?
    Who CARES What she's saying
    Who the heck brought her onboard?

  13. Hi Sky. Please pay for Bernie to have some speech therapy so she can stop inserting randomly selected vowels into words.
